Patent EP-0808683-A2 (EP)
Inventor: FRANZ UDO PROF DR
IPC: B23K9/20
Filed: 1997-05-20
Abstract: Zur Bewertung der Schweißung beim Bolzenschweißverfahren wird der zeitliche Verlauf des Widerstands R(t) zwischen Bolzen und Werkstück ermittelt. Überschreitet der Widerstand oder der Widerstandsanstieg oder die Widerstands-Anstiegsrate während des Lichtbogenbrennens einen Vorgabewert, so weist dies auf Blaseffekte, Spritzerbildung und ein Brennen des Lichtbogens außerhalb der Bindungsfläche hin - Effekte, die die Qualität der Schweißung beeinträchtigen. Bei Feststellen einer bestimmten Widerstandserhöhung wird daher der Schweißvorgang durch Abschalten des Schweißstroms oder sofortiges Eintauchen des Bolzens in die Schmelze beendet. Alternativ können aus dem bei einem ersten Schweißvorgang ermittelten Widerstandsverlauf die Parameter für nachfolgende Schweißvorgänge eingestellt werden.

Abstract: A method for compensating for propagation time delays in a communication network includes connecting each of a plurality of subscribers to a ring feeder for a common transmission of digital source data and control data in a data stream synchronous with a clock signal. The source and control data are transmitted in a format prescribing a pulsed sequence of individual bit groups of identical length containing component bit groups each forming a data channel for source data or control data. At least two subscribers, which are connected at different locations to the ring feeder, receive source data that are transmitted by one of the subscribers on different data channels and are correlated with one another. Specific bit positions are reserved in each bit group for a numerical value relayed from subscriber to subscriber. The numerical value is always set by one of the subscribers to a fixed initial value and incremented by each following subscriber along the ring feeder. Propagation time differences in the mutually correlated source data are compensated for on the basis of the numerical value.

Abstract: A method for the photodisruption of tissue using a
laser beam for stereotactic laser neurosurgery includes
the initial step of positioning the distal end of a probe
into the tissue to be photodisrupted. A laser beam
having laser pulses of picosecond or.femtosecond duration
is then directed along a beam path through the probe.
Using a focusing lens, which is slidably positioned on
the beam path in the probe, and a light reflector, which
is slidably positioned on the beam path at the distal end
of the probe, the laser beam is focused to a focal point
that is located on a line substantially perpendicular to
the beam path through the probe. By concerted movement
of the lens and mirror, predetermined cylindrical layers
of tissue can be photodisrupted. Specifically, a
rotation of the mirror causes photodisruption of tissue
along a circular arc and a simultaneous movement of the
lens and mirror allows for photodisruption of additional
arcs on a cylindrical surface. Further, by moving the
lens relative to the mirror, cylindrical tissue surfaces
having different radii can be photodisrupted.
Additionally, the area of tissue photodisruption can be
irrigated and aspirated during practice of the method.

Abstract: Lors d'un transfert de type 'à fermeture avant rupture' effectué dans un système de communications à accès multiple par code de répartition, des communications (50) en double de liaison descendante sont générées et acheminées par différentes stations de base (16) qui les transmettent à la station mobile (18). Dans la station mobile, les signaux en double sont reçus et les numéros de séquence de trame des trames (58) reçues presque simultanément sont comparés. Si les numéros de séquence ne correspondent pas, les signaux en double sont identifiés comme n'ayant pas été reçus de manière synchrone par la station mobile. En réponse, la station mobile envoie des signaux (64) au réseau de communications en liaison montante avec un message d'ajustement de synchronisation, et des modifications de synchronisation (66) appropriées sont effectuées en ce qui concerne la transmission des signaux en double afin d'assurer une réception sensiblement synchrone. Une combinaison et un décodage en diversité (68) sont alors effectués sur les signaux reçus. Dans un autre mode de réalisation, la station mobile met en mémoire tampon (72) le signal reçu plus tôt et attend l'arrivée ultérieure de la trame correspondante du numéro de séquence du signal en double, avant de procéder à la combinaison et au décodage en diversité des signaux reçus.

Abstract: Methods and apparatus for hosting a network service on a cluster of servers, each
including a primary and a secondary Internet Protocol (IP) address. A common cluster
address is assigned as the secondary address to each of the servers in the cluster. The
cluster address may be assigned in UNIX-based servers using an  ifconfig alias  option, and
may be a ghost IP address that is not used as a primary address by any server in the cluster.
Client requests directed to the cluster address are dispatched such that only one of the
servers of the cluster responds to a given client request. The dispatching may use a
routing-based technique, in which all client requests directed to the cluster address are
routed to a dispatcher connected to the local network of the server cluster. The dispatcher
then applies a hash function to the client IP address in order to select one of the servers
to process the request. The dispatching may alternatively use a broadcast-based technique,
in which a router broadcasts client requests having the cluster address to all of the servers
of the cluster over a local network. The servers then each provide a filtering routine,
which may involve comparing a server identifier with a hash value generated from a client
address, in order to ensure that only one server responds to each request broadcast by the
router.

Inventor: NISHIMURA KOUICHI
IPC: H04N5/18
Filed: 1999-03-10
Abstract: The present invention makes it possible to prevent
feedback loops from causing oscillations in clamp circuits.
When a video signal is input through a capacitor into a first
inverting input terminal of an operational amplifier, the
output terminal tends to go high level because the potential
of the first inverting input terminal is lower than the
potential of the non-inverting input terminal to which the
black level reference signal is input. Thereby the NPN
transistor whose base is connected to the output terminal
is turned on to charge the capacitor. When the charging of
the capacitor approaches completion, the potential of the
first inverting input terminal becomes higher than the
potential of the second inverting input terminal.
Consequently, the second inverting input terminal takes
priority, and the feedback loop is switched from the first
feedback loop connecting the output terminal and the first
inverting input terminal to the second feedback loop
connecting output terminal and the second inverting input
terminal. Any load-carrying capacity does not appear in the
output because the capacitor is not connected to the second
feedback loop, thus it becomes possible to prevent feedback 
loops from causing oscillations.
